    1. Re: [GERMAN-BOHEMIAN] Boehmerwald - transport lists

    3. I know that lists exist, but am not sure where all are kept. I did trace a relative who had sent a letter after expulsion to my great-grandmother in America (who had actually died in 1941). Although some of my great-aunts did not know the significance and could not read German, one had kept a scrap of paper with the address on it, for a town in Germany. I wrote to the town mayor's office, and they did report that the relative was on the transport list, had never married, lived with a certain family, her occupation, and date of death. So the town held a transport list, at least for those transported to that town. This must have also had some recording of where they placed people, since German families had to take in those expelled. Also, many from a village in the Boehmerwald would end up in another village or town in Germany, but not uniformly so. Linda
